Dominic Harrison, better known as Yungblud, had an incredible year in 2025, earning three GRAMMY nominations. He was recognized for Best Rock Performance, Best Rock Album for his album *Idols*, and Best Rock Song for his hit “.”
One standout moment was his cover of Black Sabbath’s “” at Ozzy Osbourne’s farewell concert in Birmingham. The performance wowed 45,000 fans in just five minutes. Yungblud held the microphone close and hit every note perfectly. “It’s the greatest honor you can have as a singer,” he said. “I dreamed of knowing Ozzy my whole life. I met him, got to know him, his family asked me to honor him, and then I lost him.” Sadly, Osbourne passed away from a heart attack in August at the age of 76.
In June, Yungblud released his fourth studio album, *Idols*, which quickly climbed to No. 1 on the U.K.’s Official Albums Chart and topped Billboard’s Rock & Alternative Charts. He also hosted the second Bludfest festival in Milton Keynes, England.
In September, he teamed up with Aerosmith for the *One More Time* EP, their first new music since 2012. The EP reached No. 1 on the U.K. Albums Chart and No. 9 on the Billboard 200. “I really risked it all. I thought, ‘If people don’t like this one, then maybe it’s the end,’” he shared.
Looking ahead, Yungblud will headline arenas across the U.K. and Europe next year, including a show at New York City’s Radio City Music Hall. Firebird Music Holdings has invested heavily in his music and live shows. Plans are also in motion to bring Bludfest to Prague in 2026 and the U.S. in 2027. “I don’t know if everyone takes me seriously yet, but I think they’re more inclined to give me a chance,” he said.
